Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/4 --
Witherspoon is completely magnetic, and Laura Dern's all-too-brief turn as Strayed's mother is a delight.

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
This isn't a journey of redemption -- it's one of salvation....A gut-punching drama. -- Grade: A–
Entertainment Weekly
Rating: B+ --
Witherspoon already has an Academy Award... but this is perhaps the best performance of her career -- a far cry from her previous work. It's a stripped-down, bare-bones kind of performance.

Rating: 3/5 --
Redemption in the modern age. There's confident direction from Vallée but little to truly delve into. Watch simply for a soulful and spellbinding Witherspoon.

One Room With A View
Driven by a committed turn from Witherspoon, Jean-Marc Vallée confirms himself as the go-to director for triumph-over-adversity character studies.
Total Film
The film version of Wild often leaves out or glosses over precisely the things that make Strayed's story so striking.

Bitch Flicks
Rating: 2/5 --
Wild's script hands out platitudes like servers at a wedding. There's no subtlety, or curiously any peril in this bland and unbearably introspective expedition.

Product Description:
Adapted from Cheryl Strayed's best-selling memoir of the same name, director Jean-Marc Vallée's WILD stars Oscar winner Reese Witherspoon as a self-destructive divorcée who seeks to conquer her demons by hiking 1100 miles across the Pacific Crest Trail. Cheryl was just 22 years old when her mother Bobbi (Laura Dern) died of cancer in 1991. As children, Cheryl and her brother watched their mother endure intense suffering at the hands of their mentally and physically abusive father, and Bobbi was just getting her life together when she fell gravely ill. The loss was too much for Cheryl to take, and before long she sank so deeply into heroin addiction that it destroyed her marriage. Four years later, Cheryl has hit rock bottom. She knows that unless she makes a change, the future she had once hoped for will slip permanently out of reach. Later, as Cheryl begins her arduous journey through the wilderness, those painful memories come flooding back as she encounters numerous dangers and disheartening setbacks. However, the kindness of strangers helps her summon the courage and endurance she'll need to stay the path.
